To our Local Business Owners / Entrepreneurs / General Managers,
Each year, the Bayou Park Ratepayers Association hosts and manages a fabulous Family Fun Day and BBQ Pig Roast fundraiser; 2024 is set to be the best yet, and we need your help!
The BPRA is a provincially registered, non-profit neighbourhood association of over 250 households in the Westshore area of Severn, ON. Besides being a beloved annual tradition, the event on August 24th, 2024 is our primary fundraiser for the year.
Established in 1973, the BPRA has positively contributed to our community. This is done through hosting a number of annual community events for our Association members and families, as well as management and land conservation of a deeded Beach Park which provides evergreen access to Lake Couchiching for residents and a safe habitat for birds, waterfowl, fish, and other animals.
It’s businesses like yours, here in Southern Ontario, that are supported by our residents and that see the benefits of community support. This is why we hope you’ll consider supporting our fundraiser in one of the following ways:
Cash Sponsorship: $1000+ (Diamond), $500-1000 (Platinum), $250-500 (Gold), <$250 (Friend of Bayou Park). Any level of sponsorship can be general, or can be specifically earmarked, such as for an element of the fun day like Fireworks, Horseshoe Tourney, Bouncy Castle, etc.
In-Kind Donation: Products for Raffle & Silent Auction, Food/Ingredients for Supper Fundraiser (Limited options), Equipment or other non-consumables, consumable items for the enjoyment of the attendees to enhance the event.
We always recognize our sponsors before (in emails, flyers, and social posts), during (over the PA during the event and through visual media like banners when provided), as well as after the event, on our website. Please provide us with a logo if you would like us to use it.
We can pick up your contribution (cash, cheque or in-kind donation), you can e-transfer to info@bayoupark.org, and we can also provide an official receipt for your bookkeeping as this is generally considered goodwill or marketing expense vs a charitable contribution.
Thank you in advance for your consideration and generosity. If there’s something special or different you’d like to do for this event or for our organization or our community– please reach out and let’s explore it!
Sincerely,
Andrew Kinnear
BPRA President & Volunteer
